Chapter 152 - Chen Xiuqi’s face darkened (1)
The Male Lead's Substitute Wife
Bring them over to play?
If they came over, wouldnât they have to meet Chen Xiuqi? Then, that would deepen their relationship, making it much more difficult for her to run later on. Mother and Father Su would be implicated too. That wasnât good.
Su Yaya thought for a moment before saying, âItâs a good idea, but weâre both too busy right now to keep them company. It would be better to wait until Iâm free. Then, Iâll go visit them where they are. Itâll just be a few days, am I right?â
âIn that case, letâs invite them over here next time,â he agreed.
âYeah,â she nodded.
âWait,â he suddenly remembered. âHave you really been busy with work recently? Isnât it just one variety show that hasnât even start filming yet?â
He made it sound like she was very idle!
Su Yaya pouted at him. âThatâs right, but since itâs a cooking show, I need to practice my cooking skills! Variety shows should also be taken seriously, especially since there will be judges there. I also told Sister Zhou to arrange some other jobs for me, such as shooting for magazines, advertisements, and going to the company for acting classes. I even had people from Weibo ask if I want to be one of their promoters! I have plenty of things to do!â
Faced with her pouting expression, Chen Xiuqi chuckled and reached out to pinch her cheek. âIt sounds like youâre very busy.â
âOf course.â Su Yaya huffed with a somewhat proud look on her beautiful face.
The smile on Chen Xiuqiâs face grew wider. âThen, may I ask if my beloved big celebrity is free this evening? Could you spare some time to accompany me to a charity dinner?â
A charity dinner?
A look of surprise flickered across Su Yayaâs face. Chen Xiuqi was asking her to accompany him to a charity dinner?
As far as she remembered, in the novel, Chen Xiuqi never brought the original owner to a charity dinner with him. He would usually go alone or with an assistant or secretary. However, after the An Yutong returned to the country and the two got together, she would accompany him every time.
When she was reading the novel, she had praised An Yutong for her skills and Chen Xiuqi for his over-the-top pampering. His connections were everywhere, no matter what An Yutong needed, Chen Xiuqi could get it for her.
Of course, the way he treated the current Su Yaya was no different. As long as she coaxed him enough and her request wasnât too excessive, he would try to satisfy every one of her wishes. It seemed that he had always been this kind of boyfriend.
Now, he was asking her to accompany him to a charity dinner. The reason Su Yaya came up with for that was: the Weibo post. Since their relationship was made public, there was undoubtedly a lot of talk about her in the circle. If he didnât go with her, a lot of gossip and rumors would start circulating!
The subsequent explanation was: Of course, with his identity and status, he wouldnât be affected by such rumors. However, it was better to dispel them in case they cause trouble in the future. It was just a charity dinner anyway, going with a female companion was nothing strange. Going with Su Yaya wasnât only suitable but also convenient.
After thinking it through, Su Yaya responded calmly, âOkay, Iâll go get ready.â
She needed to stay on Chen Xiuqiâs good side, it was best to comply with his wishes.
Chen Xiuqi laughed and pulled her into his arms. âHow can you be so cute? Weâre going to a charity dinner. What do you need to prepare for?â
âEh?â She looked at him in wide-eyed confusion. âDonât I need to put on makeup, do my hair, and change into a dress or something?â
He laughed even harder and stroked her hair. âIâll take you somewhere first, youâll know.â
Su Yaya nodded and asked, âYouâre taking me out to get ready?â
âOf course. My Yaya is so beautiful, I have to make sure that you outshine everyone else at the event tonight.â
Those words made her very happy. She hooked her arms around his neck and smiled. âHow do you know Iâll outshine everyone at the event tonight? What if someone else outshines me?â
He bowed his head to kiss her lips. âHave confidence in yourself. No one else in the entertainment circle can compete with your beauty. As the first female companion of Chen Xiuqi, thereâs no doubt youâll be the most beautiful woman there!â
